Yea I know there isn't a specific pink egg laying breed. I just wish I could find one that happens to lay them.

If you want a pink egg laying hen, only get the breeds in the image posted and

What you be hatching this year? More polish? Legbars? Something new?

Turkeys, quail, SS, tolbunt polish and Cream Legbars. I may find some broody breeds so if they lay i would hatch some from them as well. And you never know what eggs i might find at Glen Allen swap!

Good evening! I'm very late, my plant light died so iv'e been frantically trying to replace it.
The one I had now costs about 200 bucks, so i'm poor and replaced it with a 100 dollar job.
My first try at LED plant lights so hopefully it goes ok.

I've heard good things about LED plant lights. Much lower electricity bill if you run the light all the time. And they don't get hot so can't scorch plants.

I hope it is good Nunny. Won't lie though i'll miss the old one, it was 250 or 400 watts HPS or MH and it was all one piece and small and light.
It was awesome.
